If so, any recommendations for how to go about it?

(I see there's a package that installs a GPG Service, although >it's in beta.) dunno, but I'd be also very interested in this. there is a new version, which is fixing a critical security whole. Until now I was using ciphire, but it seems they're unable to get a Intel version up and running for OS X. So I'd like to switch to GPG as well.

My investigations so far: <http://macgpg.sourceforge.net/> is the website to start at. GnuPG itself seems to install fine. The FAQ also recommends installing the IDEA module (I'm not clear what that is, and I haven't done so), GPGKeys, (which seems to have been superseded by GPG Keychain Access, which I've installed) and GPGDropThing (also installed). I also installed GPGServices (link on the above page), although GPGDropThing also installs some Services and I'm not sure you need both. Initial playing about suggests that it should be fairly straightforward to use, though I don't have a guinea-pig to actually send an encrypted message to at the moment! -- TimH PowerMail 5.5.2 (build 4475) | OS X 10.4.8 | PowerBook FW/500 | 1GB RAM ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Re: GPG From: "Charles Watts-Jones" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Mon, 12 Mar 2007 18:26:36 +0100 On 12 March Tim Hodgson wrote: > Initial playing about suggests that it should be fairly > straightforward to use, though I don't have a guinea-pig to > actually send an encrypted message to at the moment! I've just installed the same set. At present I have to use drag and drop or services (GPG tools) as I'm missing a means of integrating GPG with PM. I haven't found any PM scripts in the 'archive' but have found some Mailsmith scripts. Perhaps they can be adapted (?); anyone tried this? It's not really my forte. -- Charles PM 5.5.3 - Intel iMac - OS 10.4.8 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- End of powermail-discuss Digest
